Sending corrected 1099-NECs

I sent out two 1099-NECs and both apparently had box 2 checked, though I did not intentionally check it. Turbo Tac says to snd 1096, 1099MISC with the corrected box checked, and corrected 1099-NEC.  Do I really need to send 1099 MISC, or can I just send 1099-NEC with corrected box checked?

No, send ONLY the corrected Forms 1099-NEC with your 1096 Transmittal form to make corrections for your original forms. They are providing instruction for both forms separately and individually.

Thank you! That seemed more logical, but I didn't want to mess something else up.
