Looks like T-Mo variant is close to getting root_ can Sprint be far behind?

I know word on the street is that devs are going to avoid the Note 5 like the plague, but according to THIS thread, the T-Mobile variant has working TWRP and may be close to root:

Does this bode well for Sprint development as well? Let's hope.
