   No, another common use 2-3 years ago was a single person who could accomplish disparate (founder) roles, such as design + code or sales + code. "Unicorn" is still used for various types of rare events.

   There's another nuance to black swan events, though. I don't recall whether this was from BS or Antifragile, but the maximum expected magnitude of an event such as a bubble pop would generally be considered to be the previous max.
