Yeah, that makes sense. Although he was taken out of the credits before and put back in, I guess the other writers felt he was too important to take out?

Because he's considered a co-creator. Matt Groening created the characters, Sam Simon is seen as creating their personalities and style of the show.

Yes, seriously. He left after season four over disagreements with Groening and Brooks.

He also hasn't worked on The Simpsons since 1993.
