Yes, and in all that time it has not worked its way into what I recall
when I need to exit a search.  It never became natural.  I have to dig
around to remember this.

                                          why do you need to use another more

I told you why -- because exiting with RET does not occur to me
in a search.

I almost always exit a search with a command that will execute after
exiting.
