I wouldn't say that; the series has made it pretty clear that not all unicorns are as magically versatile as Twilight, Star Swirl, or Starlight. Admittedly their magic does give them unique abilities, but it can be a double-edged sword. Several of the series' most troublesome antagonists-Trixie, Flim and Flam, King Sombra, Starlight Glimmer, Stygian, Tempest Shadow, and Chancellor Neighsay-have all been unicorns. You could even potentially include Nightmare Moon in that listing since she's part unicorn. That's compared to one Pegasus filly who tried to take over Equestria and a handful of Earth ponies who range in threat level from shameless copycat to hired thug.
