The only reason he says that he doesn't believe fire-breathing dragons are improbable is because he'd have to concede that his god is also improbable if he wishes to be consistent, and he's not going to concede that. That's the key reason why, and we all know it (including RR).
He's also trying to pretend that it doesn't count as irrational if he doesn't explicitly claim it lol.
Like, if he secretly believes in dragons, it's okay. It's only a problem when I outright claim God is highly improbable (although hey, if I kept it to myself that would be fine

Like most or all theists, he's just trying to have his cake and eat it too.
