Puppet supports a push model using mcollective. You can also just use ssh the same as ansible and use any CF tool to "push" changes.

Well, it's a message bus, and requires initial setup, so you don't get the zero-boostrapping capability, and require the agent to stay running and have an open port continuously open to the server.

Yes, you can initiate local runs on other CM tools, but with ansible the multi-tier orchestration and rolling updates can be accomplished from the central server without it -- just set it up and run from a laptop.
