Vmware worksation pro 16 headless linux install?

I was about to buy version 16 to run it headless but I can't find any reference to anyone running it headless? 
is everyone just used to using vmrun its not an issue anymore, just use that command to add the license and you are done. 
Or is it not supported on workstation anymore?

  • You run the Linux bundle installer to install Workstation Pro on a Linux host system. By default, Workstation Pro is installed silently, and the installation progress is displayed in the terminal. When Workstation Pro is launched for the first time, a dialog box asks you to accept the EULAs and configure necessary settings. At the same time, pure console installation is also supported. You can run the installer with the --console option to install and configure Workstation Pro in the terminal, without the first-time dialog box appearing during the first launch.
