You need to remove the owns(), locks(), and hides() tags from each template. Just deleting them after you add the template probably isn't enough; I can only get it to work by saving a new GDF file with the altered template, then loading a new character with the custom GDF file included. You might even have to restart GCA. I don't fully understand exactly what voodoo combination makes it work. Then you can load the template and the traits will be spread out through the character instead of listed under the template.
