It has nothing to do with sport pilots, all CFI rating knowledge tests
can be taken w/o a sign off. Technically the FOI requires a sign off
if you are taking it for the purpose of CFI but not if you are taking
it for the purpose of (B/A/I)GI. Testing centers were understandably
confused so the FAA sent out a notice confirming that no sign off is
required for FOI.
