No. “Mercurial” implies doing it without notice, and without telling the creation what is expected of them. The people had plenty of advance warning from prophets—including the antediluvians, from Noah.

And the curse is not because Noah was found naked, but because the one who received the curse did nothing about it (and there is heavy implication that there was lewdness involved in the lack of action); the two tribes that were not cursed did something about it.

Please read the Bible first before making ad hoc claims about its contents.

So, he was cursed because he looked at his own father in a come hither way? Interesting translation you must read. First time I’ve ever heard such nonsense.

Yikes.
