Uninstalling that package however doesn't seem to remove that library...

The following was an answer I got from Anh Vo back in August 2016, on this topic:

Unfortunately dll’s that are installed to c:\windows\system32 are considered permanent and do not get removed.

The additional information I was given back then was that we can distribute the MS-MPI DLLs with our packages and place them in the same folder as the executables that need them. This way we don't need to install MS-MPI at the system level.
