My "own closed gene licenses" show only 1 license for hearts.

You might think of it this way: When you(or someone you pay with hbs) pays for a licensed gene to be added to your horse, you receive a license with your fancy new horse. This license allows you to own and breed this special gene, and the license is kept in a frame on the wall in your stable's office. You own the license, no matter how many horses you breed, sell, or auction away with that special gene. You can even sell the original horse you added the gene to. The license stays in your office, with your name on it. Every time you buy that gene for one of your horses, you get another copy of the license to add to your wall.
However, if you choose to give an intact foundation horse with that special gene to another player during the gift exchange, you have to take a copy of the license off your wall and send it with the horse so that the player can receive the horse. If you have multiple copies on your wall, you can keep buying and breeding horses with that gene. If you only had one copy and you've just given it away, you have to buy it again if you want to breed with the gene again.

Is this helpful? Or did I muddy it up?

Mack, that was excellent. I finally understand that.
