Personally I've been a Warren supporter since the beginning and I'll vote for Biden over Sanders for some of those reasons, among others.

Bernie supporters demand purity to a fault. Their issue with her is that they feel she's a "phony" progressive. Part of it is true as she's walked back some of her policies and started taking PAC money despite claiming she wouldn't. But you sometimes have to be pragmatic in politics.
Warren was my choice too. But I did get the feeling that a lot of Warren supporters liked the idea of being progressive, but mainly just in theory. When the chips were down, they changed their tune.
