Research direction

Start by reproducing the issue on Paper 1.19.2 with an entity and a player pushed by a piston. Trace the handling of io.papermc.paper.event.entity.EntityMoveEvent and org.bukkit.event.player.PlayerMoveEvent, then verify that the appropriate event triggers for piston movement without changing other movement behavior.
