19w45a: Unable to load Overworld: Liquid tessellation crash

So, here's the situation. My 1.15 snapshot world was updated and optimized for the latest 19w45a release, my current save was located in the nether. The game loaded up as per usual, I continue a on project I was working on in the nether. Upon completion, I entered a nether portal in an attempt to return to the overworld and in doing so the game crashed immediately upon coming out the other side. I am now unable to load my world whatsoever as every time I attempt to do so, I am returned to the point of exiting the nether portal, the world attempts to load once again and crashes on an infinite loop with the following water tessellation error:

I realize that these are the inherent hazards of playing on snapshot releases, but this has rendered the world unplayable in it's current state and the thought of permanently losing the ability to do so has me in a bit of a panic.
