For what it's worth, much of the apt vs aptitude is preference and

Yes, That's what I've always read so I have always used aptitude but
in this instance I have packages that will not upgrade via aptitude.
I mention this case specifically as the Debian docs[1] say "aptitude
is the recommended package manager for Debian".
I might be a bit old-fashioned, but I don't understand anything
besides dpkg, dselect, apt-get, and apt-cache. And I have never felt
the need for anything else...
Same here. I tried to use the recommended aptitude a couple times and
just got lost.
