The TAC engineer has no idea what he's doing.  In multiple ways.

While 12.2SR* and 12.4T IOS have common ancestors, they have developed in 
heavily different directions, so there is lots of good stuff in 12.2SR 
that has not been incorporated into 12.4T (yet).  Even then, 12.4T is the 
"experimental new feature train" and should *never* be recommended anywhere
today, unless lack of flash/ram/hardware support prevents installation of 
15.0M - which has all features from 12.4T, plus (the important bit) all 
the bugfixes.

I think your best bets are either 15.1M IOS (if that has all the features
you need, I can't say for sure as I'm not running SR* stuff), or one of
the 15.xS releases (15.0S, 15.1S) that are the true successors of the SR*
train.

sheesh...
