You have it in Recommends: so almost everyone installing pm-utils will get uswsusp as a result! Would you at least consider demoting it to Suggests:? That means people who have explicitly installed it, as per your argument, will end up using it, but those who don't will get the pm-utils behaving as they might expect (and in my case at least, suspend that works :))? This would seem to be a good compromise.
It is intended that uswsusp is installed (and used) by default, so this won't change. s2disk/s2ram simply provide more features (as already mentioned) and do a few things better than plain pm-utils (I can go into details, if you really want).
If there currently is a bug in s2ram (which has to be investigated), then this is a different topic and should be fixed independent from this discussion.
