None of these things worked for me, but I have resolved this issue. To deploy on an arbitrary computer, I find that you MUST, in addition to what is noted here, also install this file:
SQLSysClrTypes12.msi
It is still available from Microsoft website, download from this link:

Figured this out by inspiration. Thank you Jesus
