Anyone who wants to exit isearch, needs to do this explicitly,
where the request of the user means typing a key that exits isearch.

His example used the command isearch-occur.  This command
is exceptional - it doesn't exit intentionally, to be able
to show matches in another window without exiting isearch.

So the right customization for him is

  (advice-add 'isearch-occur :after
              (lambda (&rest _args)
                (isearch-done nil t)
                (isearch-clean-overlays)))
