Noninteractive phpmyadmin install - a problematic approach?

I have an Ubuntu LEMP stack (Nginx, PHP-FPM, MySQL) and I contemplate some methods to install PHPmyadmin.
I know two ways to install phpmyadming in Ubuntu:
1) Install via apt:
apt-get install phpmyadmin
2) Install manually by downloading and extracting to document root, then configuring:
wget -P /var/www/html https://www.phpmyadmin.net/downloads/phpMyAdmin-latest-all-languages.zip
find /var/www/html/ -type f -iname '*phpmyadmin*.zip' -exec unzip ;
# Install dependencies, Create a conf file, a symlink, change permissions and restart the server.
I thought installing the second way by a script, is better as it is easier for configuring phpmyadmin's security from scratch, but I found myself wrong in the long run and that it does more good than harm, for me at least.
On the one hand I desire to start installing it only from apt in all my systems. On the other hand, I know this installation is naturally interactive and asking you some questions that I would prefer not to answer if they are not crucial for basic usage of the program, hence seek noninteractive install.
Does installing phpmyadmin noninteractively as with DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive apt-get upgrade phpmyadmin -y problematic in any significant way, avoiding you whatever basic functionality of the program?

Why do you want this migrated? It is perfectly on topic here and we try not to migrate on-topic questions away.

I assumed it's more "Debian general" than "Ubuntu specific" but I guess it doesn't really matter so let's just leave it this way.
