Consider a complete flag $\{0\} = C_0 2g+2$ rational points is isometry-dual if and only if the last code $C_n$ in the flag is defined with functions of pole order at most $n+2g-1$. Using a different approach, we extend this characterization to all subsets of size $n \geq 2g+2$. Moreover we show that this is best possible by giving examples of isometry-dual flags with $n=2g+1$ such that $C_n$ is generated by functions of pole order at most $n+2g-2$. We also prove a necessary condition, formulated in terms of maximum sparse ideals of the Weierstrass semigroup of $Q$, under which a flag of punctured one-point AG codes inherits the isometry-dual property from the original unpunctured flag.
