I tend to use these commands in this manner...

If a router is L1L2 then I leave the defaults, since the first instance of
router isis would create L1L2 ..
If there is only one neighbor (or I need only 1 adjacency) I would use
is-type to change the default to L1 or L2 depending on what type of
adjacency I want.
If there are more than one neigbor, and I need to perform different levels
of adjacency with them, I would use circuit-type on the interface itself.
