You're likely right; what you say makes sense. I didn't look into it back in '99; I just went Oh, cool, that's like in that Gap commercial.

Good point also, though I could imagine the Wachowskis reining in that "hip" thing you mentioned; they'd probably tell him "Neo needs to be kind of a blank at first, unremarkable when you first look at him." The Wachowskis kept the acting styles reined in and consistent on the Matrix films (Bound, too); that's a skill that Roland Emmerich doesn't have, which is why it feels like the cast members of Independence Day seem to be acting in three or four different movies because their acting styles are so different.
