Z4 Bootloader unlocked but no root... Why?



Hi,
I unlocked the bootloader of my Z5 using Sony's official method (=receiving SONY unlock code after sending in the IMEI).
As you can tell from the enclosed screenshots, my phone is supposedly rooted - which is accomplished by unlocking the bootloader, isn't it? Unfortunately, any app I use to verify root is telling me I'm not (see attached png).

I've tried to find help (threads) in XDA on the web, but did not find anything that would explain this "phenomenon"... I'm at a total loss! Rooting past devices (plenty of other Android tablets and phones) has never been an issue - as it seems to be with the officially sanctioned SONY unlock process....

Anyone who can tell me what's going wrong?
Thanks much in advance!
