Did Beatles quit playing live concerts because of their own hearing loss?

No. The Beatles stopped performing live concerts primarily because of the mounting frustration and difficulties they faced during their later tours. Fans' deafening screams made it hard for the band to hear themselves and connect with the audience, leading to performance anxieties. Additionally, the growing popularity and stardom of The Beatles made it increasingly challenging to manage the logistics and security of their live shows. It was a collective decision taken by the band members to focus on studio recordings rather than live performances. Hearing loss was not the primary reason for their decision.
