After installing rooted Fire OS 5, an Echo whose adb refuses this computer's key was read as stock and asked for the fastboot gesture. It now waits a minute for root and stops with a message, as Fire OS 6 does. The docs also note that rooted Fire OS 5 has no network adb.

The route took an Echo for installed only when the goal was Fire OS 6 and
unlocked-twrp had passed. A Fire OS 5 that answered unauthorized after its
install then read as stock-booted and was asked for the fastboot gesture.
INSTALLED_FROM names the TWRP states each goal installs from, so a Fire OS 5
install waits a minute for root and stops with its own message, as Fire OS
6 does.

unlocking.md also records that rooted Fire OS 5 listens on no Wi-Fi port.
