overlapping trait question

I suspect the forehead crystal (from swirl-snouts) and the leaf plating are considered overlapping traits. With the breeding I'm considering, it would be a sure chance of xX on the plating, but only 1/2 chance of xX on the forehead crystal. Does that mean that the only possible result is the plating showing, since there is only one available combination for it, leaving xx for the crystal? Or is it possible to end up with both xX plating and xX crystal, giving a 1/4 chance of getting the crystal instead of the plating?

Mostly wondering because I really like the leaf plating, and don't know if I need to spend a trait token to get it or not

Actually because Leafies leaves are in different positions, and not straight down the middle of their forehead, I could do crystals on the upper forehead and leaves in other locations down the face without a problem.

That would be so cool looking. I'm even more excited about the next breeding season now. Thanks!
