I worked with NSIS and InnoSetup. InnoSetup is much cleaner

At work we switched from NSIS to InnoSetup and we create MSI
packages from NSIS and InnoSetup packages IIRC.
I think it's better to go with InnoSetup because it might be
more easy and probably more powerful than building MSI
directly. But I don't have any experience with building an MSI
installer and the feature set of MSI.
We are also signing the installer and all exe and DLLs inside.
I was right. We create the MSI package out of the InnoSetup
executable with a minimal xml config for WiX.
That's not an MSI installer, it's an Inno installer wrapped in an
.msi package. It doesn't solve false antivirus positives because
the antivirus engines simply monitor the Inno installer getting
extracted and executed.
