If we don't specifically use apt output in our scripts, I don't see any harm in the warnings and using apt as such. But either way is fine

Apt is not supposed to be used in scripts, so we should use apt-get. I think it might also be a good idea to add something like https://github.com/hadolint/hadolint to pre-commit to make sure we keep rid of these and other issues.
