Ports are easy to get. I would rather have a cleric who can one-cast heal a 6khp charmed pet than a druid that would have to dump his entire mana pool to heal it.
Generally it's more efficient to get new pets. Have pet kill the mob then finish off pet, rinse repeat.

Sacrificing every ability that a druid does have in exchange for rez which you will only use if you fail doesn't seem like a good trade off if you are in a 2-man group and want to be self-sufficient.

Not to mention that by using a cleric as part of the 2-man team instead of the druid you are basically eliminating a big chunk of your DPS potential. Things like efficient dots and damage shield combined with slow make up for the loss of CH, plus you have chloro for when your are medding up. Any time your spells are doing work for you while you are sitting down meditating, you are adding a ton of efficiency to your team. Also druid nukes are like the second best in the game (unless you count situational versus undead or versus summoned nukes).

Of course if self-sufficiency, max efficiency and having access to the most abilities possible are not the goals, then that's another story I guess.
