You have 96 chips left? uhh push right away

I disagree. With 2 pair, you want to double or triple up, not win the 60 chips in the pot. I say do whatever it takes to get your opponents to put their money in.

And give them free cards on such a coordinated board?
No thanks. You are going to get called 80 % of the time here, you will look like a desperate small stack shoving his chips in.

Then what difference does it make? Why does giving free cards matter if you're planning on putting all your chips in no matter what the turn is? The only possible reason for pushing on the flop is to knock the other players out. All I'm saying is that by knocking them out, you waste 2 pair and still are extremely short stacked.
Edit: PS - You also give someone a chance with Ax to catch an ace or something and call you down.
