I would not push here if:
1) I was playing live
2) The villain scratched his nuts whenever he had 44+, but only when he had 44+
3) The villain just scratched his nuts.

I think this is a pretty clear shove, tough luck if you run into a higher PP

Two things:

Shove. And "SETUP ON TABLE 69!"

My conjecture is that there is no fold equity, which leads me to believe that pushing is really bad.

We have enough fold equity to make pushing > a Stop n Go.
