Does this feat make the weapon reach 10 the same as giants lunge? Meaning at level 1 a leshy can attack 15 feet away?

Powerful shove states:

You can push larger foes around with your attack. You can use Aggressive Block or Brutish Shove against a creature up to two sizes larger than you.
When a creature you Shove has to stop moving because it would hit an object, it takes damage equal to your Strength modifier (minimum 1). This happens regardless of how you Shoved the creature.

My question about this rule is what is a defined object? The appendix of the CRB refers you to the equipment sections but gives no official definition. The appendix also tells one to see the items entry. This would lend that a creature would need to be pushed into a wall / tree / wagon or some similar thing which holds a object type stat block, but couldn't one argue that a creature is still a object?

When using aggressive block it states :

You push back as you block the attack, knocking your foe away or off balance. You use your shield to push the triggering creature, either automatically Shoving it 5 feet or causing it to become flat-footed until the start of your next turn. The triggering creature chooses whether to be moved or become flat-footed. If it chooses to be moved, you choose the direction. If the Shove would cause it to hit a solid object, enter a square of difficult terrain, or enter another creature’s space, it must become flat-footed instead of being moved.

My question is in regards to the chosen direction of movement if the creature chooses to move. Can this movement be any square around the creature or does it have to objectively be further away from the point of origin of the shove?
