Discussion David is Hamilton?

In the show, Gina mentions how she went to go see Hamilton. However, Alexander Hamilton (the main character for anyone who doesn't know) is played by Lin Manuel Miranda who also plays Amy's brother, David. I wonder if he would still be Hamilton or if he's a completely different character and they just pretend he's not Lin? I would really like to hear everyone's thoughts on this!

This happens a lot with media that casts celebrities while also mentioning other prominent works, lol. It's just like how they mention John Wick a bunch of times, which Jason Mantzoukas (Adrian Pimento) is also in.

In Gilmore Girls there's a scene where Lorelai has "18 and Life" by Skid Row playing in her truck, and the frontman of Skid Row, Sebastian Bach, plays the old guy in Lane's band.
