I just wanted to say thank you for posting this question.   I had the same issue come up when the DAX Studio installer indicated that it needed sql server 2016 adomd.net to proceed.  I was able to quickly find this answer here to understand that it was OK to go forward.  

 

It looks like a connector that will get added, but one that I won't ever need to use.  Would have been nice to opt out!

No you do not need to. It is a separate product and works on its own.

Thanks & Regards,
