I'd take the CLT as everything complicated being normally distributed by default, but with fairly common exceptions:
1 - If the problem isn't actually that complicated, the CLT doesn't do much.
2 - If the problem is dominated by one component, it will still mostly look like that component.
3 - Most ways of slicing a normal distribution lead to other distributions. For example the Rician distribution.
