True. Pretty much any shell that's not generic original Bourne sh has its own built-in version, so that you can time other shell built-ins (which the /usr/bin/time command wouldn't know what to do with).

The ksh and bash built-ins match the output of /usr/bin/time on
Solaris: real, user, and system time on separate lines of output.

You saw what [t]csh does.

zsh and OS X's /usr/bin/time both put them all on the same line in a
pretty friendly format.

/usr/bin/time on most Linux systems is arguably even harder to read
than the csh format, though it's  more informative once you grok it:

0.00user 0.00system 0:00.00elapsed 0%CPU (0avgtext+0avgdata 0maxresident)k
0inputs+0outputs (0major+210minor)pagefaults 0swaps
