To me, Lorne's leaving was all linked into his feeling that he'd done his good deed for the universe by helping Angel for all this time and, with this final act, his part in all of it was complete. He'd done his time saving the world and he didn't like the person that it was asking him to be. His feelings were shredded by what happened to Fred and they haven't really had any time to heal. Being asked to kill someone, even Lindsey, probably just made his decision to leave more final.
