If our discussion universe contains unicorns, the statement has meaning.

If the listener is uncertain whether the discussion universe contains
unicorns, it's a clue that the speaker thinks they do.

If it's understood that the discussion universe does NOT contain unicorns,
this is a meaningless statement.
