While this is a plus the software (not very open, more proprietary) and costs involved with the Suunto setup still knock it out of the running. It is still a strong contender after Polar though, especially since the t6 can integrate with Suunto's GPS pod. All in all I like Suunto's strategy - put what you can in the watch without making it too big and have it communicate and display info from many accessories.
