  Try just POSTing the new absolute quantity you want to change to - e.g. if you have 5 in your cart and want to decrement by one, you'd POST something along these lines:
  
  ```
  {
      "redirect": "6bb2a73aac3479c68e0946e4455624e2c1b840bc2b6356074a51ba01ee1234d/cart",
      "action": "commerce/cart/update-cart",
      "lineItems[82503][qty]": "4",
      "lineItems[82503][options][note]": ""
  }
  
  ```
  
  That's what we do, and it works.
  
  Result:
  
  ```
  {
      "lineItems": [
          {
              "id": 82503,
              "weight": 0,
              "length": 0,
              "height": 0,
              "width": 0,
              "qty": 4,
              "note": "",
              "privateNote": "",
              "purchasableId": "5115",
              "orderId": 145817,
              "lineItemStatusId": null,
              "taxCategoryId": 1,
              "shippingCategoryId": 1,
              "dateCreated": "2020-10-29T11:55:02+11:00",
              "dateUpdated": "2020-11-25T11:34:47+11:00",
              ...etc
  }
