shape morphs not working with decimator

mostlyhuman

I have a piece of clothing for genesis 2 that has a shape morph for the sleeves, if i apply the shape then go into the decimator the shape reverts back, then if i apply the decimation the sliders are still showing 100% i can lower them and reraise them and in the viewport the shape changes as expected but as soon as i let go of the slider the morph in the display goes back again even though the slider remains at 100%.  The end goal is to export the decimated figure with the the sleeve morph at 100% and baked in.  Any idears?
