"Noah found favor. The suggestion is that there was something different about Noah. Why say that?

Not necessarily. You could read that as Noah "received" favor from God. As Christian pointed out, you're interpretation implies Noah did something.

Actually, the Arminians have changed the definition of grace to make their arguments. We have always understood grace to be UNMERITED favor. Under whatever definition they have for grace, Noah has obviously done something to merit favor.
