Nidalee is a fighter, she survived in the jungle (which is supposed to be impossible) and is supposed to be basically...a savage beast.

So it makes sense that she wouldn't be amazing in teamfights. No, a savage beast would track down their prey (bushwack), slowly wittle them down (Q/autoattacks), and eventually, come to take the kill, and move onto the next victem (cougar Q+ablities)

Her heal is mainly there for the sustain, her being a survivor in the jungle, and helping the ADC being even more face melting (her being versitile, which is needed to survive)

And her splitpushing ablities (W+E), are there because a feral kinda champion would naturally try to sulk alone...taking team objectives and being an overally pain in the other team's ass....not jumping in and dunking heads like and sane man would.

So yeah...thematically, mechanically, and obviously, Nidalee isn't meant to be amazing in teamfights...but is more like a solo fighter. A solitary cat, that wishes to be alone while she continues to rape the enemy team and bring them to their knees by herself.
