I found that after focusing I have to back off a little to get a truly sharp picture, otherwise my camera focuses a tiny bit behind the chosen focus point.

Check for (tiny) lint in the autofocus sensor (bottom of the mirror box).

If you've done your due diligence and are convinced that the problem lies with your T5i, then you could send your kit in to Canon to be calibrated (no AFMA on the T5i).

I think I'd better sell my crappy Canon T5i sooner than later and shift to my good old Nikon friends!

Or do this.
