While Keef was too heroined out to write anything, Mick T. contributed a large amount of work to no less than three Stones albums and only got partial credit for one song.
The Glimmer Twins were notorious for stiffing others out of credit for songs (Ron Wood has complained about this in interviews) and I can easily see why Mick would quit over this.
Plus I heard him say once "I quit the band because I wanted to live". He apparently turned from teetotaler to alcoholic throughout the course of his career in the Stones, and wanted to maintain his sobriety.
