It is not moot if WI merge modules are the only way the Speech SDK is
distributed. Please don't waste so much energy discussing related but
irrelevant points and this thread will actually get somewhere. Rereading the
thread might be a good way to understand the point and be able to help.

Currently, the only solution to the original problem seems to be: bite the
bullet, and create a separate installer package with WI (using InstallShield
or your setup tool of choice) to install the Speech SDK. Then, call this
installer from your custom main installer. In a way, this is similar to how
most games install the DirectX runtime.
