Yes, you must be. I've never heard of a netstd_misc package, I only know
of two packages, netbase and netstd.

I've no idea how you calculate that 3.6Mb figure. netbase reports an
installed size of 643kb, netstd reports 1300kb. That looks just under
2Mb to me, which isn't bad considering the functionality. If you're looking
to save space, you should remove perl and stick with perl-base, for a
start.
