Because the way Concentration works mechanically, these situations may also prompt a Concentration check, and you would still add your Constitution modifier.
Concentration is something that really only comes up for spellcasters. Most other instances where someone may need to concentrate on a task I've seen DM's and have myself ruled for Wisdom saves. This suggests that Concentration as written as a mechanic is representative of a special type of training that spellcasters need to be versed in and represents a mental fortitude to manage outside distractions. Having such an ability be modified by Constitution doesn't really make sense to me.
