Fighting forever != strength, just ask Paladins. If you can beat a +3 elite mob, would you rather do it in 2 minutes taking some damage, or 5 minutes taking no (net) damage? Yes, my numbers are off, but survivability and DPS are what make solo PvE classes, not just healing. Druids sacrifice DPS for more survivability.

What they lose in Group PvE is due to their hybrid nature. Got healing solo? Great. Groups want healing and rez capability. Got entangling roots? Not many instances where that actually works. Like using Hibernate? Hope you like UBRS. Wanna be DPS? You're good enough for solo, but you fall behind Rogues, Warlocks, Hunters, Mages, and non-tank Warriors in groups. Want to utilize your tank form? I'd like a Druid to do that too, but I never see it.

What do Warlocks lose when they go into groups/instances?
Trade yourself in for the perfect one. No one needs to know that you feel you've been ruined!
