Joist gaps for Insulation

2 months ago
In framing stage 2 storey. In GF ceiling, every alternate ones are not covered (marked in image below) with joist packers but the garage one is fully covered.
My builder said this is the standard. External wall is brick with wrapping.
I am planning to do insulation between floor level,
so if this is not covered then will the insulation be exposed to wet weather and air-tightness not possible achieve here?
I don’t know what principle behind this. kindly advise.
