The idea of "someone who got magic from a pact" is really an origin or background not a class. Someone could become a wizard after a Faustian pact.But the warlock has done some different things. Eldrict blast is unique to it. It's at least as different than the ranger if from the fighter.The sorcerer... the only thing that differentiated it in 3e was its different spellcasting system, and in 4e it had the same spellcasting and was differentiated by its role. In theory 5e will have different spellcasting systems, so you can make a spellpoint or powers-based wizard. Really takes the steam away from the sorcerer. But a lot of people apparently really want a sorcerer, and so WotC is changing their position to accommodate. Good on them.</blockquote>
