It doesn't get your space back, but at least the resources won't be used.

I may be always buying Samsung in the future because they are simple to root. My S6 is the 920F version, but it also works with AT&T in the US and the bootloader is unlocked.
Doing that is very smart. I imagine it is a much better experience with the hardware by rooting and removing the extra junk. Probably not very many people that do it, but would be a better experience with Samsung hardware.
Right now I have a Samsung phone that is not rooted, had to go through and turn off lots of apps to make it usable. Compare that to a Moto E phone I have that has a minimalist interface and simple Android setup. Samsung seems to go out of their way to complicate Android.
