Well for me, calling push with only one parameter is quite obvious. At least not less than print without parameter.
The difference is that print does not alter its operands but push does. Even ignoring these there is hardly a good reason to use $_ for push. For example, in iterators which set the $_ you might want to use something like:
for(1..100) { push @a;}, but still you would be better going by push @a,(1..100);
Please, in which chapter did you find that quote in the camel book?
You can find the quote in Chapter 28-Special Names, page 659.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
