These Daroods and Dir in Afran Qallo were recently assimilated people(last 100-120 years). Before the Egyptian invasion of Harar, the entire Oromo nation were pagan. Are you saying that Muslims willfully left their deen, identity, culture, and their land to become Pagan Oromos? There is no point in painting a romanticized picture.There was no force assimilation. The AQ gave people the choice to join as Lami(citizen) and if accepted became a part of hosting clan.
These clans have not lost who they are. We have an entire subclan of Noole, the warra Mahammed who were Yabarre and slowly became Oromo. These people know and claim it to his day, no one denies it. They have just accepted being Oromo.
