Some atheists equate the probability of the existence of God to the probability of the existence of Unicorns.[...]
That's false equivalence. Existence of a unicorn, in its most basic definition (a horse with what looks like a single horn on its forehead), is infinitely more probable than the existence of any god.
We have evidence of a wide variety of horse-like creatures living on Earth. We have evidence of many creatures with a singular horn-like protuberances on their heads, from narwhals to rhinos. The concept of a horse with a horn is not really a feat of imagination.
Nobody has ever demonstrated the existence of anything like an omnipotent magical being, with keen interest in human affairs.
