No one said that a miracle necessarily has to favour the target OF that miracle. Maybe Lot's wife was a vicious old harridan and Lot was happy to be rid of her.
But your point is nevertheless well taken. In general use, the only difference between a miracle and a curse is point of view.

I've always thought it was significant that when Satan wanted to make Job's life terrible, he took away everything Job had EXCEPT his wife.
