Some spells target only creatures. Other spells target only objects.
For example, eldritch blast only targets creatures. This prevents warlocks from using the repelling blast invocation to knock down doors, walls, or whole buildings. However, it doesn't stop a level 2 warlock from repelling a giant, or a dragon, or a primordial. Perhaps a size limit would have been wise. It seems more reasonable that this spell would work on a door than a gargantuan creature.
Is there any need for this distinction? I think the game would be better if it were simplified. To my thinking, this is an unnecessary stipulation.
