Description
On my Pixel 2 XL in Chrome 74, setting enableLighting to true causes the globe to render as completely black. I don't see any errors in the console. It seems to be an issue with the combination of showGroundAtmosphere and enableLighting, as disabling either of them brings the globe back.

Research direction
Start by opening the Ground Atmosphere Sandcastle reproduction on Android Chrome 74 with both showGroundAtmosphere and enableLighting enabled, then compare it with either option disabled. Done means the globe renders normally rather than completely black while both settings remain enabled.
