Backfire. If someone doesn't want to battle the curses... and wished for that, I can imagine at least a few ways that could play out. For example: they might be erased. Invisible. Unnoticeable. Stripped of feeling. The wraiths—the curses of which I speak—prey on people for their capacity for emotion. An emotionless husk has little to offer them. Or perhaps they simply do not see the one who made a wish ... and neither does anyone else.

Another: they are granted little to no power to fight. The wraiths target them nonetheless. Without offering a struggle, they are overwhelmed by the curses, and are taken away by— the Law of Cycles. If they are dead, then they also do not have to fight, correct?

[ ... ]

From some points of view, it is fair because the wish will be granted. Whatever miracle you ask for will indeed come true, one way or another. [ won't it? she never did become strong enough to protect madoka, did she? but perhaps... ] But we have little control over how it is, unless the wording is extremely careful ... and even then, there may still be consequences unforeseen.
