Yes that's unfortunate and fixed in the apt command I think (it should
only allow * glob wildcards), but we can't fix it in apt-get for
backwards compatibility reasons.

Title:
Unexpected behavior of apt
Status in apt package in Ubuntu:
Won't Fix
Bug description:
I was trying to install python3.10 on Ubuntu 20.04 and was quite
surprised when x11 packages ended up installed. I think it was due to
the regex matching of apt.
