Majora's Mask Could the Skull Kid's Actions in MM Saved Hyrule?

Y'know, at the start they made a point of explaining the history of the mask, and then how it was eventually sealed away. And I always did wonder, if it was sealed away, does that mean that the Happy Mask Salesman is the one that freed it, and then was careless enough to let it get stolen? Why would he take it? I have no clue, but despite that, it's still clear enough that the Skull Kid wasn't trying to protect Hyrule, or really do anything rational at all.

He's the happy mask salesman, maybe he eventually wants to start a happy mask museum?

I guess he is crazy enough to not care about unleashing an extremely powerful evil deity as long as he gets a mask for his collection.
