I'll start by admitting that I haven't played Majora's Mask.
Save systems are a weird thing, and how much you can deal with the more restrictive ones really depends on how much time you can dedicate to a session of that game while knowing you won't be interrupted. I feel like save systems where you have less chances to save can be very useful in terms of fine-tuning a challenging experience, but if real life comes knocking often, then it becomes frustrating when you can't jump in and out of a game easily.
That said, tying suspend saves to save points is just an ugly idea, since the point of a suspend save is that you can stop playing and start again, but you can't keep reloading that save to eliminate a part of the game's challenge. The owl statue saves just sound really limited, and they seem like more trouble than they're worth.
If Majora's Mask gets a remake, then I definitely wouldn't want the owl saves. I might like suspend saves anywhere if it was a Wii U remake, and I'd definitely want them if it were a 3DS remake, because that's how handheld gaming is, and I don't always want to have to burn battery on sleep mode.
