I do, actually.
It depends what you are using the unicorns for. If you use them for their blood for extending your lifespan, no they don't exist. If you are using the metaphor of unicorns as "the go-to thing which is used as a counter-example of existence", then they do exist. "Existing" is nebulous.

Ah yeah, right, that relies on on sequencing.
