  We discuss minimally supersymmetric AdS$_3$ flux vacua of massive type IIA
supergravity on G2-orientifolds. We find that configurations that are
scale-separated can be within finite distance from non scale-separated ones,
while both remain at large volume, weak coupling and have moduli stabilization.
The transition is achieved with the use of a D4-brane modulus, which allows the
$F_4$ flux to jump, and has an effective potential always accessible to the
three-dimensional low-energy theory. Our analysis further allows us to check
the distance conjecture quantitatively, as we can track explicitly the masses
of the KK modes.
