Our DPS is too low? Or DKs DPS is too high?

We think Unholy dps is probably too high on fights with adds, which ends up being a lot of Ulduar bosses. From looking at the numbers, the main culprit seems to be using Death and Decay, Unholy Blight, Pestilence and Blood Boil all together. None of those are a problem alone, but they work really well together. Unholy Blight is the spell we would most likely change. It has never really found a niche.

Q u o t e:
DKS are also EXTREMELY strong on single target fights.

Just make sure you are looking at what the data really show and not just the ranks that a website puts the classes in. For example, on Ignis what we see a lot is an Unholy DK who does a lot of AE to constructs... accomplishing absolutely nothing except for padding the meters. You can do the same thing on Emalon. Yay I won the meters!

I'm not saying all PvE damage is exactly on target. Just be very careful that you understand what is really going on in cases like this.

Q u o t e:
So why is it then that Warriors were balanced around "padding the meters" on all of the AE fights they excelled in, yet this is not being applied to Death Knights?

It is. I said above that we think DK AE is too high. The question then is whether DK single target damage is too high. It is probably higher than warrior single target damage, but we think in this case that warriors (esp. Fury) are a little low.

The Ulduar encounters are very diverse. That's actually a good thing because it chills out some of the obsession with "Is his class better than mine?" However that doesn't absolve us with the responsibility of making some changes when things feel off.
