Mirror symmetry is one of the celebrated developments in pure mathematics that arose from an initial observation in worldsheet string constructions. The profound implications of mirror symmetry in the Effective Field Theory (EFT) limit of string compactifications was subsequently understood. In particular, it proved to be an exceptionally useful toll in the field of enumerative geometry. Spinor--Vector Duality (SVD) is an extension of mirror symmetry that can be readily understood in terms of the moduli parameters of
toroidal heterotic--string compactifications, which include the metric, the anti--symmetric ternsor field and the Wilson-line moduli. While mirror symmetry corresponds to maps of the internal moduli parameters, {\i.e.} the metric and the anti--symmetric tensor field, SVD corresponds to maps of the Wilson--line moduli. Similar to mirror symmetry the imprint of SVD in the EFT limit can serve as a tool to study the properties of complex manifolds with vector--bundles. Spinor--Vector Duality motivates a top--down approach to the "Swampland" program, by studying the imprint of the symmetries of the
worldsheet ultra--violet complete string constructions in the EFT limit. It is conjectured that SVD provides a demarcation line between (2,0) EFTs that possess an ultra-violet complete embedding in string theory versus those that do not.
