5960X would be a Threadripper part (at least based on the releases of the 3000-series Ryzen desktop processors). Threadripper has typically lagged the Ryzen announcement. I think we can expect some insane TR parts soon.

The fact that they made of point of supporting threadripper in their announcement gives me a certain level of confidence there will be Zen 3 thread rippers. I mainly say this because people were curious if the 3950X would mean the end of the threadripper line, which was of course later proven wrong when the 24, 32, and 64 core TR parts came out.

AMD is clearly moving TR into the "Pro" / Workstation market. As such, "soon" means "the next Workstation trade event/show".
With CES 2021 cancelled/postponed for Jack knows how long, "soon" might mean Q2 2021.

Threadripper has always been for workstations, so they're not moving it anywhere.

Well, they have a “thread ripper pro” line which supports more RAM and official support for ECC.
