The distance between L and -1 for all frequencies is what robustness is. Less distance, less room for plant perturbation that could make you unstable. More distance, safer response. This gets integrated when you start thinking about $W_2$ and $\Delta$. These two things are how you account for the uncertainty and look at how that gets you closer to -1 or not.
