If you don't have methods to find your best minor suit fit, you are probably better to just pass 2NT.

I would think most methods over 2NT would have some sequence like 2NT - 4NT or 2NT - 3♠; 3NT - 4NT available to ask Opener to pick their better minor.

The following is not applicable to the responding hand of this thread of course, but I would think:

2NT-3S (MSS)
3NT-4N..would not be a further attempt to pick a minor, but rather a quantitative slam try. Opener might still show a strong 3m holding enroute while accepting, but it would be incidental.

If you play it as MSS, I certainly don't, it shows 5-5 minors for me.
