The story is well known within Yiquan community, while WangXiangzhai was in Fujian province he interacted with a Baiheiquan master and wang acknowledge the WC masters high skill in PH while in free sparring the economy master was no so much a match for Wang.
Wang served as martial arts instructor for the army in Fujian
Fujian White Crane style

Push hands (PH) is kind of problematic in that it has become a skill set within itself, measured against itself. I'm not a fan of using it this way.

I view it only as a training tool, one that, if not understood, can develop some very bad habits.
The same could be said about other types of CMA training using a similar approach to developing sensitivity .

Wing Chun's "Chi Sao" (黐手) comes to mind among others.
