Abstract: We study the weak gravity conjecture, the swampland distance conjecture and the emergence proposal for $mathcalN=1$ orientifold compactifications of type IIB string theory with O3-/O7-planes. We allow for orientifold projections with $h_{+}^{2,1}eq0$ which gives rise to closed-string $U(1)$ gauge fields, and our findings show that certain structures present for $mathcalN=2$ compactifications are not present for $mathcalN=1$. In particular, assumptions about stability have to be relaxed and we encounter an ambiguity for the emergence of gauge symmetries associated with the $h_{+}^{2,1}$ sector.
