Moto X PURE NOT "Play" or "style" bootloader unlock and root?



Ok I'm sure some of you are thinking "what's the difference?" and "what a noob" or something like that. But given where i come from, that being the original Motorola Droid 1 rooting used to be extremely simple and easy since there was only ONE model for the motorola DROID 1 here in the states. I have a Moto x PURE edition and was curious if there is in fact a difference between that and the STYLE/PLAY models that would make it impossible to unlock my bootloader and root it? I know that for some time it was very difficult because you couldn't officially unlock your bootloader with out being a developer for it, yet developer options are fully accessible on the moto x pure. I'm beyond confused and need some clarification on this.

I'm currently on 6.0
security patch feb 1, 2016 (not the latest one even tho it keeps asking me to update it)
system version 24.201.3.clark_retus.retus.en.US retus
and build number MPHS24.49-18-3

i honestly have no clue if i'm able to unlock the boot loader with out bricking it automatically
and i honestly have no clue if i'm able to root it with out bricking it automatically because in the past i've tried rooting other devices similar to this and failed miserably.

please don't tell me to just go on the forums and look up root methods and unlocking the boot loader because simply put they have a combined forum of both the international model and the US model so sifting through all of it just to get things clear is beyond frustrating since i have no clue what i'm looking at anymore :/

another thing to note is that i was previously on the LG G4 which makes my confusion understandable from my perspective since in some cases it's possible to root the G4 and in some other cases it's NOT possible to root the G4 and each model has it's own number and build and blah blah blah making it impossible to know if mine is rootable or not.
