为什么apt没有提示我确认安装依赖项？

Question

通常，安装具有当前未安装的依赖项的软件包将使 apt在继续安装之前确认是否需要：

$ sudo apt install gnome-terminal
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
The following additional packages will be installed:
  gnome-terminal-data gnome-user-guide libhyphen0 libjavascriptcoregtk-4.0-18 libnautilus-extension1a libwebkit2gtk-4.0-37 libwebkit2gtk-4.0-37-gtk2
  libyelp0 yelp yelp-xsl
The following NEW packages will be installed:
  gnome-terminal gnome-terminal-data gnome-user-guide libhyphen0 libjavascriptcoregtk-4.0-18 libnautilus-extension1a libwebkit2gtk-4.0-37
  libwebkit2gtk-4.0-37-gtk2 libyelp0 yelp yelp-xsl
0 upgraded, 11 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
Need to get 23.5 MB of archives.
After this operation, 115 MB of additional disk space will be used.
Do you want to continue? [Y/n]

然而，几分钟前，我运行了完全相同的命令，并且在没有询问的情况下 apt 安装了 gnome-terminal 及其依赖项：

$ sudo apt install gnome-terminal

为什么 apt 会这样做？
