When assessing unfalisiable claims, all we have to go on is the amount of assumptions that have to be made in order to accommodate the claim.
Deism assumes some sort of creator.
Other forms of theism also assume some sort of creator. But then they go on to assume specific traits about that creator, and that it has interacted (or even continues to interact) with our reality while leaving no evidence behind.
Deism wins, due to less assumptions needed. Deism is still irrational, in my opinion, but less irrational than all other forms of theism.
