While in some of the more involved string constructions it may be difficult to check the WGC explicitly, there are many examples, such as compactifications of the perturbative heterotic string, where the conjecture is both non-trivial and verified by explicit calculation.

Etymology
Heterotic comes from the Greek prefix hetero- meaning 'different'. In physics, a heterotic string theory mixes two different kinds of string theory, so the name tells you it brings different parts together into one model.
