Windows 10: Can't install Windows 10 Pro Workstation on new computer with no OS

Bought Windows 10 Pro Workstation on Microsoft site for over $300 US. Followed instructions to download Media Creation Tool on another computer. Created USB drive and booted new machine. Put in product key and it says "The product key entered does not match any of the Windows images available for installation. Enter a different product key."

how to install and download the new windows 10 pro workstation

You can't select Windows Pro Workstation on a clean install, its not listed as an install option. Not unless things have changed since I downloaded the Media Creation Tool ISO on the 17th.
And as far as I know Pro Keys won't work for Pro Workstation. If they would, Microsoft wouldn't have given me new Pro Workstation keys. I have a two separate lists of keys for Pro and Pro Workstation.
I did option one in the tutorial listed above, Upgrade Windows 10 Pro to Windows 10 Pro for Workstations

 

how to install and download the new windows 10 pro workstation

I've done a couple of clean installs, both with the MCT ISO and my Visual Studio Subscription ISO, Windows 10 Pro Workstation was not listed as an option. Pro and Pro N were listed but no Workstation. On one of my Pro installs I did a change product key, entered one of my MSDN Pro Workstation Keys and it switched to Pro Workstation and activated with a Digital License. I have no idea how you clean install it though?
