Using .012 instead of a .010 or .011

I have and heard Paul Franklin talk using .012 for the third string instead of th.010 or .011. My question is in regards to the fourth string, do you keep it the same as always or what gauge would you recommend?

The NYXL Franklin set shows that it is .015 for string 4. It goes up a whole step no problem. I use those. I think in general you go as big as you can unless it breaks?
