Yes, and my impression/guess is that because 'apt' docs describe it
as being basically a front end with more convenient defaults for
interactive use, what happens when 'apt' is given these (or other
similar) options that it does not recognise as its own as documented
in the 'apt' man page, it behaves the same as if it handed these
options off to whatever command it runs as its back-end.
So 'apt -s install ...' behaves like 'apt-get -s install ...'.
I don't know if that's literally how it is implemented, but it's
the general behaviour that I would expect. 'apt' is still under
development so the details of it's behaviour might change
between releases.
