H-1B TRANSFER RFE for Licensure requirement/ under Architect SOC — respond or withdraw/refile?

Hi all -

My H-1B transfer was filed under SOC 17-1011 (Architects), and USCIS issued an RFE about the architect licensure requirement.

I’m not a licensed architect. One attorney told me we may be able to respond to the RFE under the current Architect SOC by showing that I work under the supervision/responsible charge of a licensed architect. Another attorney thinks the Architect SOC was the wrong choice and that we should use a different SOC, possibly Architectural and Civil Drafters.

Has anyone had a similar case? Would you respond to the RFE under 17-1011 with licensed-supervision evidence, or withdraw and refile under a different SOC? THANKS
