How can I discover new commands using M-x (or similar command) semantically?

Currently, I'm in Doom and I'm pressing M-x which does a nice fuzzy search for commands.

The problem with this is it has no synonym detection. So if I'm trying to collapse something and type M-x collapse, fold does not come up. Then I have to Google to find out the solution. There is also C-h a for apropos, but that is a hassle.

When I'm searching for a command to do something, how can I do that in a semantic way? Meaning that it searches by meaning instead of by text. At least synonyms for the word I type will be included in the results.

This is related to the more general question of semantic search in Emacs and also to how to see what keybindings are available when I'm in some minibuffer mode like Helm (please let me know if that is the correct terminology).
