That doesn't make any sense from Honda's perspective. Why would they want you to spend less money on maintence just so they can see more warranty claims? I think it is fine to stay on the Honda maintenance schedule, as long as you don't drive very hard.
With that said, I use synth oil but I will still change at 5K miles due to the fact that I redline my car often.
