You loose the time saving gain, if you need to look for something heavy to add to make it work. It could be used to cover a rough lean to; to allow leaves to be added on top, for roofing.

You say that because you dont plan on carrying the bag on your back, sometimes time is of the essence and sometimes time doesnt matter, and pounds do. Do you like that net I showed you?
BTW, since she bee in the hospital for over 6 weeks, I've been carrying a pack everyday, and it's between 35, and 45 pounds. Weight is a consideration, but not the holy grail. I've hiked over the top of a 12,500 foot mountain with an 80 pound pack on my back, and had a great time!
I have pre-placed caches along my bug out route, minimizing what I need to carry. This is to increase speed. I have 52 miles to go to get there, and have a bicycle with a motor and trailer stashed in case the roads are jammed. I hope to be moved before any real ugliness occurs, but prudence demands a backup plan.
Every bug out in entirely different by necessity, so every bug out bag must be different to match! My wife is in a wheelchair, so my bug out plans are more involved that most people.
I try to minimize weight, but we look at items that will directly help US. I would use a 12 foot diameter net, although your net selection would be better for someone traveling long distances alone.

If you are living out of the backpack, weight is important. If it is intended to get you to another selected location quickly, weight becomes a secondary issue, behind speed!
I like a larger net myself! But I'm larger than most others, so bigger makes sense for me.
My true bug out bag, is a 27 foot long trailer.
