You are correct, it's the web installer.
The full redistributable is named dotNetFx40_Full_x86_x64.exe & is 48.1 MB in 
size.
Looking at the source for the WiX installer, in \src\Setup\Bundle\Bundle.wxs it 
contains the following:

        <Chain>
            <PackageGroupRef Id='NetFx40Web' />

So /layout will always pull the web installer it seems.

Sounds like a bug then.  I just ran "wix37.exe /layout .", and 
redist\dotNetFx40_Full_setup.exe is only 869 KB which leads me to believe that 
it's the web installer.  This is WiX 3.7.1224.0.
