Probably declining ridership. Before the LIE was built, no limited access highway ran east of the Town of Brookhaven, so there was a lot more demand for train service out east.
The LIRR has closed tons of stations over the years, though. At one point there were probably twice as many as there are today!

The very tiny Setauket station was closed around thirty years ago.
