Head Coach privileges

[Splute]

I had never noticed the word PREVENT a timing mistake before... My bold lettering and Italics parenthesis....

The head coach may request a time-out or signal his/her players to request a time-out, while within the confines of the coaching box. The head coach may also confer with personnel at scorer's table (assumed while in coaching box) to request a 60-second time-out (or one 30-second time-out if that is the only type of time-out remaining) for a correctable error as in 2-10, or to prevent or rectify a timing or scoring mistake or alternating possession mistake.

So, does this mean the AC who is assuming the HC responsibilties is now allowed 3 direct/indirect Ts before DQ or is he still at 2?

If you're going to give him indirects, you need to allow for three.
The question is whether he can request TOs, choose mandatory replacements, etc. If he can, give him the indirects as well.
