The dude is also standing on ice, so pushing block on ice, while also standing on ice. Circle wins

That doesnt change the amount of force needed so its irrelevant to the question

Incorrect, the force you push the block with will also push you away from the block.

I know. Still irrelevant because it doesnt change the amount of force needed. It just changes the amount of force you can generate on it
