Amusingly, Octave is also used in Andrew Ng's Coursera ML class. I'm sure that class makes 100X more by way of verified certificates. We all want to use Free Software but don't want to donate either time or money.

The biggest problem with apt-get is that the available versions of a given software tend to lag from the actual releases by a fair bit. Moreover, you probably don't want to install a certain package using apt-get and another using pip
