Do you acknowledge that we have no evidence that such things do not
exist? And therefore, we should at least remain agnostic on the idea
rather than reject the idea out of hand?
Imaginary things do not have physical existence. You can dream up some
other kind of existence if you like, but you have no evidence that any
such notion has useful content. In this context, absence of evidence is
evidence of absence.
