Shield Master would be a really cool feat if it would exclusively give you that BA Shove. Flavorful and useful.
Larian should also pay close attention to "5 feet". Not 20ft. or 50ft., 5.
I honestly can't believe Shove is still a BA and the distances are what they are. It's objectively terrible. I guess they prefer the slapstick and memes over credible tactical combat.
Right. I believe
https://baldursgate3.wiki.fextralife.com/Arrow+of+Roaring+Thunder has that 5ft. knockback range and is also available to all classes with an appropriate ranged weapon, so there is absolutely no need for an universal BA Shove skill and certainly not with more than 5ft. as you say.
