Yes, that is a bit weird.

Let me give exemples of non existent thing: a unicorn with two corns, A cat is 
is also a dog, a saure without corner, a triangle with four sides, a proof of 
an inconsistency in RA, a French who is higher than Mt-Everest, etc.

If mechanism is true, then an ontological physical universe is another example.

The set of non existent things is empty, almost by definition. I would say.
