Exactly, so getting allows you to clear an entire wave with 2 auto attacks instead of 6. For PUSHING it's the better option.
 * "...If you finished Nashors Tooth, you only need to attack every minion once and they all die to poison."

But generally you want to save the mushrooms to safeguard your escape and maybe pick up a kill on whomever would gank you during your pushing.
 * "Alternatively you can place one mushroom between melee and ranged minions to kill whole wave."

When asked for an item build for pushing, is actually the first Item you should look at with a single target ranged champion. Just like you would look at and  with a melee pusher. Having that AoE pushes the lane the fastest. And yes, you do need to safe those "2 seconds" since you can then run into their jungle and make it a minefield. Also keep them guessing where you are and maybe push the middle lane as well as the top one. You basically don't want to be in the top lane 24/7 giving them vision, you want to run around frustrating them.

The only people who should be visible split pushers, are people like, who are bulky and mobile enough to survive a 5 vs 1. Teemo is not that champion.
