This issue is an easy fix but raises a different problem which is likely ingrained in UE, which is that MIDs should not be serialized out and should always be transient. Unfortunately we are in a position where the number of BPs serialized out in this way could actually be problematic if we changed this behaviour, so likely we need to reconsider that as part of the material update paths instead.

Load the game in editor, the floor material will be fully visible.
Package the game for windows + launch, only 1 part of the BP material will be visible.
There's no existing public thread on this issue, so head over to Questions & Answers just mention UE-214332 in the post.
