--- Notes ---
(名詞)＋〜のことだから:〜という特徴のある．．．だから．．．（〜と予想される）
Therefore, it has the meaning of :
'It is therefore typical of he/she to ....,being (serious, ect) all this
while'
'Being a (characteristics,e.g. serious) person, it is typical of he/she
to...'
'As it is known for his/her 〜, he/she will therefore .... '
'Known for his/her 〜, he/ she will therefore .... '
This is the only acceptable use of this grammar:
Ｎ + の + ことだから
「Ａ(の)ことだから、Ｂ」
The case where Ａ is a person occurs often. Ｂ predicts or anticipates
the nature or usual circumstances of Ａ.

--- Comments ---
Only ex#251 fits into this category of grammar, ex #3788, ex #3790 , ex
#3792 all not examples of this grammar pattern, they are
こと(事） ＋ だから。Therefore is :
ex#3788 : そういうこと ＋ だから
ex#3790 : 大事なこと ＋ だから
ex#3792 : やったこと ＋ だから
The above 3 examples, こと can be replaced by 事 (contributor: 誠)
In modern day Japanese, you can say ことだから without using 事.
(contributor: bamboo4)
誠 is correct. This grammar only means 'as always' when の is used in
front of it. The other uses of ことだから, such as the examples that
誠 pointed out, have a different meaning. (contributor: rubyhatchet)
