Unicorns are also pretty awesome - unfortunately, they seem to suffer from the fatal defect of there not being even a single instance of such a thing in consensual reality.

By definition everything was once a "unicorn" before the resources, demand and labor were mixed into developing it. Everything must originate as a idea before it can become praxis. Modern capitalism itself was a unicorn as recently as the 18th century, but it emerged nevertheless.
