Question Of The Day - Luck

If Unlucky is something that works against your favor, and your favour is the norm (Lucky), shouldn't Lucky and Unlucky switch places in priority ? Where the root word is Unlucky and the disruption be Lucky...

The idea is, Luck refers to events motioning in someone's favor, and, often, beyond someone's normal amount of favour. However, when someone survives for a while, it can be thought of as being Lucky. Therefore, Luck becomes a norm, as most things push forward. So, if Luck is the norm, there would be no need for the word to be created or used, as the norm generates no resistance in daily life. Most things are created out of necessity and resistance, and then, the tweaking of the necessity (eg/ie; plug first, then, unplug). The tweaking cannot come first, as there'd be nothing to tweak (ie/eg; unplugging what was never plugged). Therefore, if Lucky is the norm, it is no longer the root (or the starter; the necessity); instead, Unlucky would become the necessity and the starter, and the modifier would be Lucky or Ununlucky/Inunlucky.
