I don’t doubt that someone, somewhere, has had the very real experience of seeing a hallucinated Unicorn while eating random cacti in the desert! It would be ironic if this experience ended up distracting them so much that they walked straight past the very real oasis they were searching for, resulting in a very real tragic death by dehydration.
Fantastic, this provides another teachable moment for you! 😀
My comment presented something called a hypothetical situation. It is an example of how particular circumstances can lead to a specific outcome. The key takeaway is that–and I recognize this can be confusing!–it does not make any claims outside the details contained within the hypothetical.
This answers both of your questions, but let me make it easy for you: I don’t, and because I made these circumstances be true in this hypothetical situation.
I would imagine that seeing a Unicorn would be quite the experience.

Why do you believe humans need anything exterior to hallucinate?
Why is the Unicorn being imagined different than the oasis to you?

If your brain creates the illusion of a unicorn, then the presence of the illusion is real, even if the unicorn is not.
