This is a case where a missing library isn't really a problem.

• decimal tries to import _decimal which links against lpmbdec.so.2 which is part of a separate mpdecimal libary
• If that fails, it falls back to a pure python implementation in _pydecimal

/usr/lib/python3.8/decimal.py:

try:
    from _decimal import *
    from _decimal import __doc__
    from _decimal import __version__
    from _decimal import __libmpdec_version__
except ImportError:
    from _pydecimal import *
    from _pydecimal import __doc__
    from _pydecimal import __version__
    from _pydecimal import __libmpdec_version__

# ldd /usr/lib/python3.8/lib-dynload/_decimal.cpython-38-x86_64-linux-gnu.so
    linux-vdso.so.1 (0x00007fff251f5000)
    libmpdec.so.2 => not found
    libpthread.so.0 => /usr/lib/libpthread.so.0 (0x00007f848f130000)
    libc.so.6 => /usr/lib/libc.so.6 (0x00007f848ef69000)
    /usr/lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (0x00007f848f187000)

Perhaps staticx needs a more elegant way of reporting this.
