Strava does pretty much everything you've listed over the couple of posts you've been talking about it, and does handle laps from Suunto. At least it does from my Spartan, synced with Suunto app which syncs to Strava. The trick may be to turn auto laps off when you are starting an activity, then just press the lap button on the watch when you start/stop an interval. I did exactly this for some hill reps the other day and Strava shows the correct intervals.

Strava doesn’t seem to pick up Suunto laps - there may be a way, I haven’t looked at it in detail (I don’t have much patience with this stuff).
So if I do a couple of miles warm up follow by 2 x 2 miles (each a lap) with a 3 minute rest, and mile warm down, Strava gives me pace/ time for each mile - not the laps - so the intervals are mixed with the rest, warm and warm down, and an overall pace for the 7 or 8 miles which is pretty much irrelevant
The ability to pick up laps from suunto and then to look at the interval pace over time is really what it comes down to
