As an employer of admins for over 30 years if those admins can't be bothered to read the documentation, in man-pages or other forms, then I consider them remiss in the *most* important skill any admin should be using constantly.

When something isn't familiar you read the documentation, explore the commands themselves, do some lab-work, and become familiar with the tools.

systemd in particular has provided some excellent consistent tooling for gaining insights into service state, configuration, dependencies, resources and more.
